Carbon Steel Pipe Reducer – High-Performance Buttweld Fittings

Carbon steel reducers are critical components in piping systems, allowing for the transition between pipes of different diameters. These buttweld fittings are available in material grades such as Tiêu chuẩn ASTM A234 WPB, A860 WPHY 65, and A420 WPL6 for low-temperature services. In addition to reducers, we also supply other buttweld fittings like elbows, tees, crosses, and caps, all of which can be delivered promptly to meet project timelines.

What Makes Pipe Reducers Unique?

While fittings like elbows, tees, and caps can have multiple connection methods (such as socket weld và threaded types), pipe reducers are exclusively designed with a buttweld (BW) connection. This ensures a strong, leak-free joint capable of handling high-pressure and high-temperature environments.

Types of Carbon Steel Pipe Reducers

1. Carbon Steel Concentric Reducer

A concentric reducer features an inlet and outlet aligned along a common centerline. This design allows for a gradual and even transition between pipe sizes, maintaining efficient flow and reducing turbulence. Concentric reducers are cost-effective and widely used in vertical piping applications and general piping systems where maintaining symmetry is crucial.

2. Carbon Steel Eccentric Reducer

An eccentric reducer has an off-center outlet, which allows it to sit flush against flat surfaces like walls or ceilings. This design helps prevent fluid accumulation by ensuring the bottom of the pipe remains level. Eccentric reducers are primarily used in horizontal piping systems, especially in applications where drainage and prevention of air pockets are essential.

Buttweld Reducer Weight Chart

The weight of buttweld reducers depends on their size and wall thickness, following the ASME / ANSI B16.9 standards. For sizes larger than DN1200 (NPS 48), the weight is calculated based on a wall thickness of 9.53mm.

What is a Buttweld Pipe Reducer?

A buttweld pipe reducer is a fitting that connects two sections of pipe with different diameters. According to ANSI / ASME B16.9, it ensures a smooth size transition, reducing flow restrictions and minimizing pressure drop.

Types of Buttweld Pipe Reducers:

• Concentric Reducer – Used primarily in vertical piping systems.
• Eccentric Reducer – Used in horizontal piping, ensuring fluid flows without pooling, which is essential for drainage systems.
